Inked Girls: Lsinge

Myself in a sentence: Brazilian living in Chicago, big fan of women in metal, misanthrope, gun lover, Krav Maga enthusiast.

Hometown: São Paulo

The design and themes of my tattoos: I'm a huge fan of black and gray tattoos and have been focusing entirely on it (my only colored tattoo is the one on my back). My most recent tattoos have been Viking inspired, but I'll be taking a break from that for a while and focusing on getting some more surrealistic tattoos.

My favorite tattoo and the story behind it: My favorite tattoo is my second tattoo, the skulls in my arm. I wasn't originally going to do what I end up getting, but Cibele (brazilian tattoo artist from São Paulo) was convinced that she could do something better (I was originally going to do something similar to what Sabina Classen from Holy Moses has in her arm). She draw it up in 20 minutes and 3 hours later it was in my skin.

My next tattoo: My next few sessions with my tattoo artist will definitely be to finish my Viking side piece. We've been working on it for 7 months now and I can't wait to finish! After that I will probably close my back with some of my dad's paintings (he's an amazing surrealistic painter) and extend it up to a half sleeve.
